Bret Hackett has been involved in the building industry since 1994 when he worked with Levonian Construction in Los Angeles. Two years later his interest in building led him to study ecological design at Prescott College. That experience was culminated with the construction of a straw-bale home outside of Prescott, Arizona. Bret is currently in the process of building a green and healthy home in South Lake Tahoe. Bret is a member of the Sierra Green Building Association (SIGBA) which was created to advocate environmental design in construction and operation of homes and businesses in the Tahoe region and the Sierra. He is also a member of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). The U.S. Green Building Council’s core purpose is to transform the way buildings and communities are designed, built and operated, enabling an environmentally and socially responsible, healthy, and prosperous environment that improves the quality of life.

Bret lives, works, and plays in South Lake Tahoe, California with his beautiful wife, Rosie and their dog, Osa.
